Change form and display record from previous form

[erniemack]

I am using a combobox lookup on one form and would like to use the value returned from that lookup to display a record on another form. Here is the select statement:

SELECT tblJob.JobNumber, tblJob.CustomerName, tblJob.PO, tblJob.[Customer Motor #], tblJob.assm_status FROM tblJob WHERE (((tblJob.assm_status)<>"Done")) ORDER BY tblJob.CustomerName;

Column 1 is the bound column

Here is the after update code

Private Sub CustomerSearch_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Err_customersearch_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Dim acct As Integer
acct = Me.CustomerSearch.Value
stDocName = "frmOESJOBmaint"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , "[jobnumber] = acct"
Exit_customersearch_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_customersearch_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_customersearch_Click
End Sub

When I run it asks for the parameter value of "acct" and if I key the jobnumber in it will display the proper form and record. Please help me understand what is wrong.

Thanks

Hi erniemack,

Try below code. I hope it should work but i didn't try it.

Private Sub CustomerSearch_AfterUpdate()
On Error GoTo Err_customersearch_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
Dim acct As Integer
acct = Me.CustomerSearch.Value
stDocName = "frmOESJOBmaint"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , "[jobnumber] = YOURFORM!acct"
Exit_customersearch_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_customersearch_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_customersearch_Click
End Sub

Replace YOURFORM with the name of Form which contain CustomerSearch Combobox.

Hope this helps

I used
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , "[jobnumber] = " & acct
It worked. Thanks for the response
